Is there something holding the throttle body open? It shouldn't rev that high without air. Make sure your throttle cable isn't bound up in some way holding the throttle body open. I know this sounds elementary, but I can't imagine what else might be causing the idle to jump to 5,000+. You could try to disconnect the IAC valve, perhaps it's giving you issues.

throttle cable might be too tight...

well we disconnected it from what holds the and turned it on and it stayed at 1 k and jumps to three on its own that holder is letting the tb open just a lil bit and makes it rev high..... whats my best bet?
